Lithium-ion battery cell degradation is one of the things that makes BESS a more complicated asset to manage than other clean energy technologies.

Saleel Anthrathodiyil at Telgian Engineering & Consulting discusses changes in the 2026 edition of NFPA 855.

We hear from industry sources about the significance of the CATL-HyperStrong sodium-ion BESS battery deal. Does it make a real turning point for the technology as an alternative to lithium-ion?

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) will provide project financing for large-scale solar and storage projects in Egypt and Hungary, for project owners HAU Energy/Infinity Power and Renalfa respectively.

With CATL and HyperStrong’s 60GWh sodium-ion battery deal announcement yesterday, it’s an ideal time to look at the different sodium-ion cell chemistries and battery products available for BESS today.

Battery manufacturer CATL and system integrator HyperStrong have entered into a 60GWh sodium-ion battery order deal, which CATL said marks a ‘turning point in the industrialisation of sodium-ion batteries’.

Saudi Arabia’s state-owned Saudi Power Procurement Company has started the qualification process for its second large-scale build-own-operate BESS tender.

We look at the potential of flow batteries for LDES and compare the leading providers’ offerings and trajectories.

Zambia’s president, Hakainde Hichilema, attended the recent launch of the African country’s largest hybrid renewable energy project.

Building BESS is complicated, with myriad considerations around supplier contracts, site acceptance tests, data analysis, interface between different contractors.
